Police say a man has been found dead at the Hollywood Hills home of Getty oil fortune heir Andrew Getty, but have not confirmed it's him.

Los Angeles police went to the home after a woman called to say someone in the house had died.

Officers found the man in a bathroom.

47-year-old Getty is a grandson of J Paul Getty and one of four sons of Gordon Getty, a multi-billionaire who's considered one of the richest men in the United States.
